Dec <seg type="del">19</seg> 20 1915   Dear Katie,   A few things I want <lb/>you to send me when you <lb/>go to Dublin are the following <lb/>tooth powder and the usual <lb/>tobbaco &amp; two pair of <lb/><seg type="unclear">Pumerals</seg> &amp; of course the <lb/>socks &amp; Putties. I will <lb/>be glad to have some of <lb/>the Christmas pudding. <lb/>It will be something from <lb/>home.

             Did Tommy have a ride on <lb/>the motor bike since I <lb/>hope it is in good order <lb/>still. I am sure the kitchen <lb/>is grand now also the <lb/>lobby. I will not know <lb/>the place when I get home. <lb/>We are having a hard <lb/>frost now. I suppose poor <lb/>old Barry will run away <lb/>from me when he next sees <lb/>me. I nearly forgot to ask for <lb/>little Lot. I have no <lb/>more to say at present so <lb/>Good—Bye &amp; God Bless you <lb/>all.
